hello out there I'm new to this site had it recommended by a friend of Fallout Equestria when I asked him for help.

I'm Currently trying to write a side story that I'm hoping will be great and I plan on it being a large project my problem is that I need some help making sure its good before making it public I currently only have a chapter done and need a bit of help looking it over making sure it's good and isn't a rip of something else and to make sure my facts are straight. Basically I'm looking for editorial aid so if any one is willing to help me that would be awesome just post a reply and I'll get to you as quickly as possible.

Link the googledocs chapter, and allow everypony to comment. With a ghost avatar from sc1 you can't be that bad!

If you allow people to comment, they can post suggestions and improvements. Making it a lot easier to help.

The comment stream doesn't allow people to save comments - go into the "share" options and change it to open to the internet, anyone can comment. It makes it a lot more convenient for those trying to help, and you don't have to be on the document at the time to still see their comments.

Also, you may want to head over to the compilation document - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Kao ... n_US&pli=1 - if you're a good writer, they're more than willing to take a look. If you're like me though, they can give you a crash-course on grammar and formatting and get you started on making you story better.

I've looked it over and put up some notes to go over, skipping a large part because of earlier said matters, i left a large blurb of overall commentary at the very end. please don't take it any of it personally, your on the rise and will only get better with time.

no no its fine and as I replied to that commentary I understand to be honest I've had a friend point out that I was just redoing Fo3 abit there and its something I really need to figure out how to fix.
